That’s GOOD...
ROFL!
For the time being...
I *know* how to code.
I’m sick of coding.
I’d rather plow, mow, rake, bale, fence, plumb, wire, saw, wrench, nail, fish, garden, etc.
I want to see ShatGPT do *those things*.
Those are the things of reality, and life.
AI is now reading medical x-ray images that once were the sole domain of radiologists. AI is also analyzing biopsy slides, once done solely by pathologists.
AI like humans is only as good as your data set.
We have the advantage of being creative, when data is missing.
it carried an underlying assumption that most people accepted. Perhaps you should learn to code.
If we think developers notes are bad now...let AI go a bit. LOL
Knowing how to code let’s you be part of the clean up team that does recovery once there’s been a breech
Well said
And 50 years ago ever-smarter electric typewriters started to be replaced by word processors that replaced more secretaries. ATMs started to replace bank tellers. Telecoms kept replacing more switchboard operators. We didn’t call all that AI.
That’s a bingo! Teach your kids how to fix things in any trade. That knowledge will keep them free.
.
“Y’all see how far CASE got.”
Yep. We heard the same crap from the same ignorant idiots back 40 years ago. “CASE is going to replace programmers.”
Yeah, right.
Coders would move to formally defining requirements.
I have a friend that is teaching new hires just out of college to code in COBOL for his company. There is a real need for code maintenance.
Bingo!
Well, as somebody whom has been in software development for over 30 years, I think that is a vast oversimplification. Yes, this technology is in its infancy....but when the problem domain is complex AI falls apart, it will require extremely well written requirements. Currently it’s terrible with anything beyond boilerplate code snippets (although it’s very helpful for such code).
Unfortunately, the entire world still sucks at writing well written requirements. The only exception is when functional safety is required but, even then, problems creep in because something wasn’t defined correctly.
Even if you separate designers from coders, it still requires a painful amount of communication to get things right, even when you have well defined requirements and UML/SysML diagrams.
“...There will be no programmers in five years...”
That’s because they won’t be called programmers. They will be called AI Engineers.
Bunch of bull crap. ChatGPT isn’t going to replace Linus Torvalds, or even me. I’ve used CGPT to look up library calls, program invocations, etc. It is NOT creative. It seems to barely understand what I want to do. It sure isn’t writing my program for me.
